The rules:-30 mins max modelling time-unlimited prep time (thinking, sketching, looking for pics etc. NO MODELLING!)-I will ask people to judge the models on time taken to model, quality of the model and originality of the idea.-Multiple entries are allowed, keep it sensible though.-Please provide a wire frame shot of your model when you post.-Sketchup output only (and as much as i know you love rendering your models, it would be appreciated if you could hold of posting them in the gallery until after the comp.)-Any texturing should be done within the modelling time.

No flowers yet?I want to see some petals!BTW, I'll post my model, but after that I'll need some help with organic modeling... Is not normal to spend half of my 1/2 hour giving shape to just one petal... of a simple tulip! The rest was easyMaybe I won't post this one because the mesh is a mess (lol) and I'll choose an easier model

So I made an orchid (and ran out of time...), and then a water lilly (it came out "nice")... but at the end I prefered my first option, the tulip.Besides, posting the model I had troubles with is the best way to get feedback on the modeling of petals.30 min (coloring included). Close to 20 for just the petal component.

Yup. Actually, it was included when SU became "open" to ruby plugins in version 4. And until version 6, it was not even included into the free version of SU (nor animation export, print to scale, 2D export larger than screen resolution etc.)
